Has anyone ever stayed at Smoke Hole Cabins WV or spent time in the general vicinity?

I will be there in two weeks (if my tires survive FATT) for a weekend. The drive down 55 looks awsome, I am just not sure what the best points of interest are. I will only have one full day to tour around.

Any feedback is appreciated.

 

That is a great area, I go out there on my bike a few times a year

For good driving Check out these roads, 33, 42, 219, 72, 32.

For places to go, Seneca rocks is just up the road a bit, Dolly Sods and Spruce knob are nice parks to visit (they are both on Gravel roads I beleive) another nice park to vist is Blackwater Falls.

The giant windmills are a sight to see on 219

 

Thanks George! I was guessing you would know the area. I think I will stay off the gravel roads. I live on one and the dust can mess up a clean car pretty fast. The interior is problem I have with it.

I will be heading out RT 55 to get there and then map some tours of the roads you suggested. The falls sound like a nice place to take a brief rest.

 

I grew up camping with my family at Spruce Knob. Beautiful place!

 

Stay on old 55, there are a few detours to the new superhighway (it's only finished in sections) which is just boring and cuts out the best parts of 55.

 

Thanks again George. I intend to enjoy the drive.

 

wasn't "Deliverance" created there?

 

Deliverance was filmed in Georgia and South Carolina, but I am sure the banjo music is heard in West by God
